"An individual is eligible for election as a school board member if the individual is a citizen of the United States and is a qualified and registered elector of the school district the individual seeks to represent" according to state law. An 18-yuear-old student is certainly qualified if he or she is registered to vote and lives in the district, and could bring a unique perspective as well as youthful energy to a board. Since you seem to have the answers to all life's questions, Cheese, why don't you give it a shot? And by the way, I don't think a board can legally begin the filling of a vacancy until one exists.
